The list price of £300,000 seems reasonable in the context of the Herne Bay market and considering the proximity to good schools. However, the substantial renovation costs required must be factored in. The lack of precise square footage data for the property and surrounding comparables makes a precise assessment challenging, but the price seems about in line with similar properties requiring substantial renovation.

The property is in significant need of renovation and modernisation. The provided photos reveal outdated interiors, damaged walls and flooring, and an overall state of disrepair. While this presents opportunities for buyers to create their ideal home, it also significantly impacts the property’s current condition.

The property benefits from a highly desirable location in Herne Village, Kent. It’s situated on School Lane, close to outstanding-rated primary schools (Herne Church of England Junior School and Herne Church of England Infant and Nursery School). The proximity to Herne Bay train station also provides convenient access to other parts of Kent and beyond. The village itself offers a charming and tranquil atmosphere. However, the immediate surrounding area lacks the vibrancy of a larger town, which may detract slightly from its appeal for some buyers.

The property includes a garden, but the provided photo suggests a relatively small and somewhat overgrown space. While the presence of a garden adds value, its size and condition are less than ideal; hence, the moderate score.
